Can we put these 'it's dead' threads to bed now?

I'll tag along with Furbs and Ze-Jamz on this...

The humourous part to me, is that these and other combat flight sim forums - are not really any different from what I see on the "news". CNN, Fox, etc... are almost exactly parallel to the UBIZoo and SIMHQ. You cannot get away from it, except by "tuning out".

The world went to a lot of trouble to create 1000 + cable channels and the internet - only to find out that most people can't communicate and a large subset clearly don't possess the basic skills required for original thought.

As it relates to flight sims - even the more mature simulation products can't get away from blind stupidity.

I just ran into a "doomsday" thread at the ROF forums. Here's the most developed propeller sim, with at least quarterly updates - developer constantly communicating with it's fan base - only to see a post like this:

I'm convinced the smartest thing that Luthier has done in the last year, is to stop attempting to communicate here. Better to be quiet and put every ounce of energy in the product. Then maybe, just maybe - talk.

As far as continued human insanity - one can only hope it's a summer thing... and will go away by fall

S!

Finally a rational post!

I don't bother reading any of the 'doom and gloom' threads. I'd rather launch CloD and enjoy myself.

Some people feel they got hosed buying this and others feel they should be happy to accept BOHICA like they do. Its that simple. Until the sim is fixed, it will stay that way.

To be fair tho the developer replied after 7 posts. I would not call it a doomsday thread but rather a which direction is RoF taking ? and it was answered promptly by the developers. So i think you are incorrect with your coments.
